Borussia Dortmund fans opened homes to opposing fans after explosions postponed game

Three explosions went off near the Borussia Dortmund team’s bus on Tuesday before its Champions League game against Monaco, according to USA TODAY Sports. The game was moved to the next day.

Thankfully, the player who was injured, Marc Bartra, posted a message on Instagram on Wednesday saying he’s “doing much better” and thanking everyone for their support. And some fans who traveled for the match were able to find places to stay for the night.

Both Borussia Dortmund and Monaco fans used the hashtag #BedForAwayFans on Twitter. Dortmund fans used it to tell visitors that they had open beds, and Monaco fans used it to ask for help.

“It does not matter who started it. What matters is that it’s a great victory for humanity that so many people, also from other clubs and some not even football fans, joined in and opened their doors,” he said.
